Match preview

Crystal Palace host Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League on 28 December 2025. Crystal Palace sit 15th on 45 points and Tottenham Hotspur are 17th on 41. Crystal Palace have won 2 of their last 5 (LWWLL), while Tottenham Hotspur have won 1 of 5 (LDWLL). In their last 2 meetings, Crystal Palace won 1, Tottenham Hotspur won 1 and 0 ended level. These are probabilities from past results, not guarantees: football upsets happen every week.

How this is worked out

Each club has an Elo rating that moves after every result (bigger wins move it more, home sides get a small boost). We turn the rating gap into expected goals and use a Poisson model to get win, draw and loss chances. The prediction is locked at kick-off and never edited.
